Skyland at Shenandoah National Park is right at the heart of Shenandoah National Park, nestled at Skyline Drive’s highest elevation of 3,680 feet! They have two dining options: the Pollock Dining Room, which serves regional specialties with farm-to-fork flavors and amazing views of the Shenandoah Valley, and the Mountain Taproom for drinks and live entertainment every night.

Since Skyland is at the highest elevation, it has some great views as you dine at Pollock Dining Room! When we went though, the park was so foggy that we couldn’t see the view beyond! We went during lunch time. They have different menu during lunch and dinner, and some seasonal menu.

To be honest, I found the mains underwhelming and prefer the Small Plate items. They really make the pub food well here as the Gourmet Burger was amazing and which I recommend. The gourmet burger was very flavourful especially with the gouda, which enhanced the burger because it melted from the heat! Virginia ham is very popular in the state so it’s good you have the option to top it off. If you’re not going anywhere else for Virginia Ham, then definitely do the add-on!

They do desserts really well here as well. But one thing I was so impressed and I highly recommnd here is their Signature Blackberry Ice Cream Pie! Trust me on this – I normally don’t even eat blackberry but I really loved it!
